On a recent Tuesday, Lala Kent was spotted showcasing her growing baby bump at The Boy & The Bear Coffee Roastery in Sherman Oaks. This location is close to the $3.1 million five-bedroom house she purchased in February. The 33-year-old expecting mother dressed casually in a grey tank jumpsuit with “Love Love” printed on it, a patterned baseball cap, and matching Nike high-top sneakers.
Lala Kent is coming for Kristen Doute. On the ‘VPR’ after show, Lala says that Kristen hasn’t evolved much and is old.
She also refers to Kristen’s boyfriend, Luke, as “Sugar Bear” and says he looks like a “serial killer.”

Lala, whose real name is Lauryn, co-parents her three-year-old daughter Ocean with her estranged ex-fiancé Randall Emmett. The pair separated in 2021 amidst cheating allegations, after being together for three years. Lala and her mother, Lisa Burningham, who lives with her, will also co-parent her soon-to-arrive second daughter, who will have a first name starting with ‘S’. This child was conceived via intrauterine insemination, a fact Lala has openly shared.
The public sighting occurred just hours before a dramatic episode featuring Lala aired. During the final part of the “Vanderpump Rules” Season 11 reunion, she nearly stormed off set. Frustrated, Lala confronted her co-star Scheana Shay about comments made off-camera, exclaiming, “Can we be done? I am like so f***ing done.” She expressed her discontent with the dynamics of the show, feeling she was the only one being honest.

During the reunion, host Andy Cohen played clips that led to further confrontations, including a dispute over Lala’s accusation that another castmate, Ariana Madix, exhibited a superior attitude, likened to having a “God” or “Beyoncé” complex. This accusation came after Ariana gained increased fan support and opportunities following a scandal involving her ex, Tom Sandoval.
Ariana responded to the criticism at the reunion, emphasizing her efforts to remain true to herself, especially in the wake of her breakup with Sandoval. She added, “I feel like it is our job to live our lives and I am living authentically walking away [from Tom]. I could have done it for the show but I don’t think our show thrives when we aren’t fully real.”
The conversation escalated as Lala defended her outburst, explaining her emotional state during filming: “I was livid and I am sorry if I hurt you but I stand by what I said. And I probably didn’t say it the most eloquently, but this was days and days of me – Scheana saw me – I was sobbing on a regular basis.”

Ariana retorted by suggesting that her decision to walk away from a heated argument provided a more compelling end to the season, questioning whether her actions might even ensure another season and hence another paycheck for the cast.
In an off-camera moment, Lala confided to Scheana, expressing her indifference to the feelings of others within the group, particularly those she rarely interacts with, like Ariana and another cast member, Katie Maloney.
Meanwhile, it was announced on April 30 that production for the Emmy-nominated reality show would be put on hold for a year. Lala, who joined the cast of the “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” spin-off during its fourth season in 2015 as a hostess at SUR, remains active. With 3.2 million followers on social media, she manages her skincare and cosmetics company, Give Them Lala Beauty, and also runs her own Amazon shop. She is rumored to be joining a spin-off titled “The Valley.”
